something he had never attempted before.
“Got it.”
Serenity recognized that highly skilled professionals often got caught up in their busy lives, leaving little time to consider their daily needs.
“Get some early rest, Mr. York.”
With that, Serenity retreated to her room, securely shutting and locking the door behind her.
The sound of the door locking cast a shadow over Zachary’s eyes. He felt as though she was putting up a barrier against him. However, he soon acknowledged that they were on equal footing; he too locked his bedroom door and closed the window every night while he slept.
In a way, they had established a solid system together.
Serenity asserted her boundaries, while Zachary did the same. They respected one another’s space, allowing each other the freedom to breathe.
Importantly, Serenity never anticipated him to fulfill his part of their marital obligations.
A moment later, Zachary pulled out his phone to call Sam, the butler. Once Sam answered, Zachary solemnly instructed, “Sam, arrange for two washing machines to be delivered to Brynfield. You can choose the brand, but please don’t go for anything too expensive or too cheap.” Sam respectfully acknowledged the request.
After ending the call, Zachary stared at the closed door for a moment before getting up and returning to his room.
The night passed in silence.
The next morning, at six o’clock, Zachary was jolted awake by a phone call.
He glanced at his phone screen; it was Serenity calling. Although he felt a twinge of annoyance, he decided to answer her call.
“Are you awake, Mr. York? We agreed to pick up flowers at the florist at six.”
“I’m up,” he replied.
“I’ll wait for you. Please hurry.”
“Sure.”
Since he had promised to take her there the day before, Zachary quickly got out of bed, dressed, freshened up, and stepped out the door, even though he was still feeling groggy.
Outside, Serenity was waiting with a purse in hand.
She had her phone, keys, and the debit card that Zachary had given her. Later, she planned to visit the ATM to check her account balance. It was important for her to stick to her budget and make purchases that were within her means.
